Bowers Electricals Limited (BEL) recognises that its operations affect the environment, and as such, we require outstanding environmental management systems to the principles of ISO 14001:2015 to be an integral part of its business and at the forefront of operational thinking and planning. In pursuance of these objectives, the company will:
- Comply with (and in certain circumstances, exceed) environmental legislation, consents, licences, codes of practice, best practices and advice from expert sources.
- Promote energy conservation by efficient use, careful planning and design with due regard to improved energy utilisation and appropriate investment in energy efficient measures.
- Plan and manage advance operations to minimise the ecological impact of all operations on the environment.
- Minimise waste and ensure that there is effective control, which promotes recycling where possible and provides responsible disposal, particularly with regard to hazardous wastes.
- Control noise, contamination, discharges and emissions, and so mitigate the risk of pollution.
- Use materials and resources, including energy, efficiently using sustainable construction methods and materials wherever practical.
- Adopt an environmentally friendly transport strategy.
- Consult and create a culture where environmental principles directly relate to business performance and work with all relevant stakeholders to achieve this.
Whilst the Management of BEL will facilitate this Policy Statement, and ensure it is updated in line with legislative changes and technology improvements, we expect all employees to work towards creating a better working environment. Adherence to this policy is therefore a condition of employment.
This Policy will be communicated to all persons working under the control of the organisation and will be made available to interested parties on request.
